For sale is my 2020 Squier Paranormal Jazz Bass ’54 in the fantastic White Blonde finish.

This has been a genuinely well-used and well-loved bass, having seen plenty of rehearsals and gigs over the years. As a result, it does have its fair share of scrapes, dings and general signs of use, but nothing beyond what you'd expect from an instrument that has actually been out and played. The wear is purely cosmetic and, if anything, gives the bass a bit of character.

Despite being well gigged, it has always been looked after and has proven itself to be an incredibly reliable workhorse. It’s the kind of bass you can pick up, plug in and get on with the job — whether that's rehearsals, recording, or taking it straight out on stage.

The Paranormal series is one of Squier’s more interesting ranges, combining classic Fender-inspired designs with some slightly unusual vintage styling, and this ’54 Jazz Bass is no exception. The White Blonde finish looks great and complements the distinctive retro aesthetic perfectly.
